5.00It was a beautiful night in London! Our tour guide and driver were fantastic! The tour guide was so knowledgeable about the buildings, statues, art, business etc. It was a non-stop informative download that was fantastic to connect the sites with the history/fun facts. The driver went the perfect speed so we could get the pictures and not miss anything!
We were able to see many...

4.00We were able to see many more sights compared to being a foot. The views of the landmarks are great. The cold and wind chill made it hard to enjoy it.
Fantastic!

5.00Super interesting and hilarious. David is really an entertaining guide with a lot of (historical) knowledge & information interspersed with good jokes. We hung on his lips and didn't think about the funeral we originally came for for 2 hours.
Fantastic!

5.00We went on a night bus tour with Beatrice the driver and Andy our guide...we booked this as we hate the earphones and would far prefer a real person....we were not disappointed. Andy was brilliant and very informative and was fascinating and funny at the same time. Highly recommend. Thank you.

4.00It was a great tour. The tour guide was awesome. Only downside was that it was raining, so this made it slightly difficult to see everything.
Do not book!!!

1.00DO NOT book. We were sent an address for meeting. Stood in the cold at this address and bus didn’t show up. Tried to contact the tour company…no response…contacted Viator and the tour group said they were late. Contacted tour group…said they were on time. Requested and refund and to no avail. Stand in the cold at the address they emailed and they didn’t show up until late. And now they are saying they changed the address for meeting place as well without notice, yet they say it’s our fault. Poor communication on your group fault.
Splendid Views, Spotty Sound

3.00The nighttime views of London were stunning and the route hit all the highlights. That said, the audio system made the commentary hard to follow, so we didn’t get the historical perspective we hoped for. Compared to other bus tours we’ve done, this one didn’t quite measure up—but still a scenic ride.
Great experience

5.00Despite the rain, we visited London by Night covered on the bus deck. Denken the driver and Dominic the Guide were very welcoming, friendly and we learned a lot about London.
